The mark is Wilton. Although commonly referred to as pewter it is actually a non toxic aluminum based alloy trademarked by the company called Armetale. I have a couple pieces myself. They don't sell too well on Ebay as they are plentiful but for .50 you can't go wrong.
 
Thanks Diggummup ! I'll take them to the antique mall , should be able to sell them for $5.00 each and reinvest the $9.00 proffit :)

$5 is a good price.
